OPERATIONS:
ROUGHING: It aims to remove as much as possible material from the workpiece for as
short as possible machining time. Quality of machining is of a minor concern.

surface and geometric tolerances). Quality is of major importance.
In order to make most profit the most relevant variables are: ROUGHING FINISHING

CHARACTERISTICS:
More productive cutting process in small sized components.
Possible to be used with high-alloy tool steels up to 60-63 HRc (EDM process can be avoided).
Excellent surface roughness can be achieved (Ra ~ 0.2 m).
Machining of very thin walls is also possible.
Typical applications: dies and moulds, difficult to machine materials,
DISADVANTAGES:
Higher maintenance costs: Faster wear of guide ways, ball screws and spindle bearings.
Specific process knowledge, programming equipment and interface for fast data transfer is needed.
It can be difficult to find and recruit advanced staff.
Human mistakes, hardware or software errors give big consequences. Emergency stop is practically
unnecessary.
Good work and process planning necessary.
Safety precautions are necessary:
Machines with safety enclosing (bullet proof covers).
Avoid long overhangs on tools.
Do not use heavy tools and adapters.
Check tools, adapters and screws regularly for fatigue cracks.
Use only tools with posted maximum spindle speed.
Do not use solid tools of HSS.

SURFACE ROUGHNESS:
Surface finish, i.e. Surface Roughness, is mainly determined by the distance between the
contiguous toolpaths, tool radius and surface slope.
How to calculate the axial (ap) and radial (ae) cutting depths to
achieve a certain theoretical roughness?

EFFECTIVE TOOL RADIUS
In ball end mills, cutting happens at points with different diameters. Thus, as the whole tool rotates at

CHIP CONTROL
Excellent Acceptable
The chip formation is acceptable when chips can be
evacuated from the drill without disturbance.
The best way to identify this is to listen during drilling:

A consistent sound = chip evacuation is good.
An interrupted sound indicates chip jamming.
Chip jamming can cause radial movement of the drill Chip jamming
and affect hole quality, drill life and reliability, or
drill/insert breakages.
A hole with good chip evacuation. A hole affected by chip jamming.

Start chip
The start chip from entry into the workpiece is always
long and does not create any problems.

PECK DRILLING
Peck drilling may be necessary if chip evacuation is difficult due to a deep hole or the
use of external lubricant.

CUTTING FLUIDS
CUTTING FLUIDS
CUTTING FLUIDS
Cutting fluid is any liquid or gas that is applied to the chip or cutting tool to improve cutting performance.
Cutting fluids serve 4 principle functions:
1. To remove heat in cutting (=COOLING): The energy used in the cutting process is almost
exclusively transformed into heat that goes to the workpiece, tool and chip. The effective cooling
action depends on the method of application, type of fluid, fluid flow rate and pressure.
2. To lubricate the chip-tool interface (=LUBRICATION): It reduces friction forces and

temperatures.
3. To wash away chips (=CHIP REMOVAL): This is only applicable to small and discontinuous
chips.
4. To avoid part oxidation (=ANTI-CORROSION): The environment humidity in combination with

the high temperatures (500-900C) obtained during machining may cause part oxidation. Thus,
the cutting fluid must contain anti-corrosion additives.
Use of cutting fluids contributes to:

Diminish tool wear (longer tool life).
Produce workpieces of accurate sizes (reduce thermal expansion).
Achieve proper surface quality of the workpiece.
Support chip removal.
Reduce thermal stress on machine tool.

CUTTING FLUIDS
- TYPES OF CUTTING FLUID
Cutting oils are based on mineral or fatty oil mixtures. Commonly used for heavy cutting operations.
Soluble oils is the most common (95% of the time), cheap and effective form of cutting fluid. Oil droplets
suspended in water in a typical ratio water to oil 30:1. Emulsifying agents are also added to promote stability
of emulsion, as well as anticorrosive additives.
Chemical fluids (synthetic) consists of chemical diluted in water. They may have harmful effects to the skin.

SELECTION OF
CUTTING CONDITIONS
Productivity is a combination of factors that really make a difference, such as:
Increased cutting conditions = more parts per hour

Predictable tool life = machining security
Fewer tool changes = less down time
Fewer rejects = higher quality more valuable end product
Product availability = less inventory
Technical training of employees = better understanding and less scrap
Important to identify the most relevant factors that influence the FINAL COST:
3%
17%
27%
31%
22%
Important to identify the most relevant factors that influence MACHINE-TOOL UTILIZATION TIME:
Machining efficiency suggests that good quality parts are produced at reasonable cost and at high
production rate.
Most relevant cutting parameters that affect machining costs and productivity are:
1. Depth of cut
2. Feed
3. Cutting speed
1. Depth of Cut (ap, ae)

It is predetermined by workpiece geometry and final part shape.
In Roughing operations As large as possible (max. 6-10 mm).

It depends on machine tool, cutting tool strength and other factors.
In Finishing operations A single pass to achieve the final dimensions.
Roughing passes in a turning operation Finishing pass in a turning operation
2. Feed (F, fn, fz)
In Roughing operations As large as possible (max. 0,5mm/rev).

It depends on cutting forces and setup rigidity.
In Finishing operations Small to ensure good surface finish (~ 0,05-0,15 mm/rev).

Cutting at high cutting speed involves...
Reduction of tool life Increase of production costs

as more cutting tools are needed.
Increase of productivity less time consumption.
Hence, optimal cutting speed range has to be calculated for:
Cutting speed for minimum cost per unit (V min).

Cutting speed for maximum production rate (V max).
Parts per hour

Cost per part
Production cost
Tooling cost
Fixed costs
Machinery costs
Economic High efficiency Vc for Cutting speed Vc

Vc range max. productivity
- HOW TO CALCULATE THOSE VALUES?
Several limitations need to be considered:
1. MACHINE
2. TOOL
3. GEOMETRY
4. MATERIAL
1. MACHINE: The machinery usually exists in the workshop, and it may be a limiting factor.
Anyway, either an existing or a new machine is used, attention should be paid to
the following machine features:
General characteristics: number of axes, machine configuration type, general

dimensions and weight,
Axes: traversing range, power, accuracy, max. workpiece weight, max.
acceleration and feed.
Workholder system: Forces, vibrations,
Spindle head: power, speed range, run-out, stiffness, clamping system,
automation possibilities, internal cooling.
Toolholder system: Run-out, torque,
Tool changer: chip to chip time, max. number of tools, tool length and diameter,
Cooling unit system: internal or external, MQL, HPC
CNC controller: capabilities

2. TOOL: Tool wear will occur.

There are five main wear mechanisms which dominate in metal cutting:
1. Abrasion.
2. Diffusion.
3. Oxidation (corrosion).
4. Fatigue (thermal).
5. Adhesion.
These wear mechanisms combine to attack the

cutting edge in various ways depending upon
the tool material, cutting geometry, workpiece
material and cutting data.
Flank wear is the most common type of wear

(abrasion) and the preferred wear type, as it
offers predictable and stable tool life.

CUTTING DATA ON DISPENSERS TURNING INSERTS
When increasing the cutting speed (vc), feed rate (fn) should be
decreased and vice versa.

1. Cutting Speed (Vc)

Vc: Cutting speed (m/min)

Dm: machined diameter (mm)

1. Cutting Speed (Vc)

Given the following parameters calculate

Cutting speed Vc = 120 m/min

DEFINITION: Relative movement between the workpiece and the tool.

3. Cutting depth (ap)

HIGH SPEED STEEL Threading 10 Thread pitch According to formula

HIGH SPEED STEEL Threading 15 Thread pitch According to formula

Surface finish depends on:

WIPER INSERTS: Advantages:

TOOL CENTRE HEIGHT

Diameters starting from > 10mm.

Spindle Speed Variation (SSV)

SSV technique may reduce or eliminate chatter.
